Infiniti Q50L to be launched in China

Taking a lead from some of its premium rivals, Infiniti has created a long-wheelbase version of the Q50 sports saloon especially for China. The Q50L, which will be both built and marketed only in that country, gains a 48 mm (1.9”) wheelbase stretch for the benefit of rear seat passengers.

When sales begin in November customers are going to have a choice of Comfort, Elegant, Sports, Luxury or Luxury Sports trim grades. A rear window sunshade, cabin mood lighting and a 14-speaker Bose audio system have already been confirmed for the available equipment list.

Infiniti intends to offer just one powertrain option, though. It's a 208 bhp (155 kW / 211 PS) 2.0 litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged petrol engine mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission.

The Q50L is due to make its public debut later this month at the Chengdu Motor Show.

Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
